Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour 3 muffin cups. Grease and flour an oven-proof glass or ceramic bowl.
- Beat cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs together in a bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until just-moistened. Increase mixer speed to medium and beat until batter is smooth, about 2 minutes. Fill prepared muffin cups with batter; pour remaining batter into prepared oven-proof bowl.
- Bake cupcakes in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, 18 to 21 minutes. Let cupcakes cool briefly in the muffin tin before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Bake cake in the preheated oven until golden and a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 33 to 45 minutes. Let cake rest in the bowl for 10 to 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Transfer cooled cake to a serving platter.
- Place 2/3 of the coconut into a resealable plastic bag; add red food coloring, seal the bag, and shake until coconut is shaded pink. Repeat process until coconut is your desired shade of pink.
- Measure out about 1/2 cup of remaining coconut and place in a bowl. Pour remaining coconut into another resealable plastic bag; add green food coloring, seal the bag, and shake until coconut is shaded green. Repeat process until coconut is your desired shade of green.
- Secure 2 cupcakes, tops against the cake, with toothpicks to one end of the cake to form bunny "feet." Place 2 marshmallow halves, cut-side down, on top of each cupcake to complete each "foot." Secure remaining cupcake, top-side against the cake, with a toothpick to the top of the cake to create the "tail."
- Spread pink frosting over cake and "feet", excluding the "tail." Cover pink frosting with pink coconut. Spread white frosting over the "tail" and cover with reserved white coconut.
- Cut fruit roll to form 2 small ovals and 6 smaller circles. Using frosting as "glue," secure 1 oval and 3 circles to each "foot" to resemble foot pads. Secure paper bunny ears to the serving plate at the front of the bunny cake using frosting. Sprinkle green coconut around the cake to resemble grass.

Steps:
- Make the chocolate cake and paws: Preheat the oven 325°F (170°C). Grease a 7-inch hemisphere-shaped cake pan or 9-inch deep oven-safe bowl and 5 cups of a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
- Pour the chocolate cake batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling each about ¾ of the way. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the cupcakes spring back when gently pressed.
- Fill the prepared cake pan with the remaining batter and set in a flat-bottomed cake pan to stabilize in the oven. Bake for 55-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the cupcakes and cake from the oven and let cool at room temperature for 20-30 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator to cool completely, at least 1 hour.
- Make the buttercream: In a large bowl, combine the butter, salt and powdered sugar. Cream with an electric hand mixer on medium speed for 5-7 minutes, until no powdered sugar remains at the bottom of the bowl. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Beat in the vanilla. Add the milk and continue beating until the buttercream is light and fluffy, another 5 minutes.
- Make the bunny ears and paw prints: In a small, microwave-safe bowl, combine the pink and white candy melts. Microwave in 30-second intervals until melted and smooth. Transfer to a piping bag and cut a small hole at the tip.
- Line 2 small baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Place the skewers vertically at one short end of a prepared baking sheet. Starting at the tops, pipe the melted pink candy over the skewers in the shape of bunny ears, leaving 4-5 inches uncovered at the bottom to stick into the cake. Let sit until dry, about 5 minutes.
- On the remaining prepared baking sheet, use the candy melts to pipe 4 large circles, about 1 inch in diameter, and 8 small ovals, about ½ inch wide, for the paw prints. Let sit until dry, about 5 minutes. You will not need all of these for assembly, but make extra incase of breaking or improper sizing.
- Make the grass: In a medium bowl, mix together 1½ cups shredded coconut and the green food coloring until the color is evenly distributed.
- Make the carrots: Using kitchen shears, cut off the flat ends of the orange candies.
- Cut the green sour ropes crosswise into ½-inch pieces. Place 2-3 of the green ropes pieces onto the sticky, exposed sides of the orange candies for the carrot tops.
- Make the bunny tail: Add 3 cupcakes to a medium bowl and crumble finely with your hands. Mix in 1 tablespoon of the buttercream until evenly distributed, then shape the cake mixture into a ball. Transfer to the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to set.
- After chilling, coat the cake ball in buttercream, then cover with 3 tablespoons of the white shredded coconut. Return to the fridge while you assemble the rest of the cake.
- Make the feet: Place the remaining 2 cupcakes on a cutting board, with the bottoms facing up. Dab a bit of buttercream on the side of each cupcake and place a marshmallow on top of the buttercream.
- Cover the cupcakes and marshmallows with a thin coat of buttercream and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to set.
- Remove the feet from the refrigerator and cover with a thicker coat of buttercream, rounding the edges to blend the shape together. They should be narrower at the top and rounder at the bottom. Arrange the pink candy paw prints on the feet, with a round circle on top and the 3 smaller ovals underneath. Return to the refrigerator to set for another 20-30 minutes
- Assemble the cake: Dollop 1 tablespoon of buttercream on the center of a cake platter. Place the round cake on the center of the platter with the domed side facing up, using the buttercream to keep the cake in place.
- Spread a thin layer of buttercream all around the cake and cover with the remaining 1 ½ cups white shredded coconut.
- Place 6 toothpicks in 2 triangle shapes on one side of the cake. Remove the feet from the refrigerator and place them into the toothpicks.
- Place 4 toothpicks above the feet, then attach the tail to the toothpicks.
- Spread the coconut grass around the body, then arrange the easter eggs and carrots in the grass.
- Stick the ears in the front side of the bunny at about a 45° angle, so that they are slightly resting on the cake for support. If the skewers are too long, cut down so the ears cant rest against the cake.
- Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Bake the cake according to the package instructions. Let cool completely.
- Use a fork to break the cake into fine crumbs, then add the frosting and stir until well-incorporated and the mixture holds together when pressed between your fingers.
- Roll the mixture into golf ball-sized balls, with a corresponding number of smaller balls to serve as bunny tails. Chill in the freezer for 5-10 minutes, until firm.
- Add the white chocolate and coconut oil to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Melt in the microwave at half-power in 30-second intervals, stirring between, until smooth.

- Let the cake balls sit at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate sets.
- Enjoy!

BUNNY BALLS
We created these balls in honor of Easter. We won't lie to you-they are a serious undertaking, and are without a doubt the most complicated recipe in this book. But we promise that the end result is completely worth the effort. Braising the legs with the onion and thyme brings out their incredible flavor and tenderness. Butchering the rabbit can prove a bit tricky, so visit your local butcher shop at an off-hour when the butchers have some extra time on their hands to help you. Serve with Mushroom Gravy (page 63) and Mashed Potatoes (page 79).
Yield Makes about 2 dozen 1 1/2-inch meatballs
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the olive oil into a 9 × 13-inch baking dish and use your hand to evenly coat the entire surface. Set aside.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large frying pan for 1 minute over medium-high heat. Add the onions, fennel, and salt. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender and begin to brown, about 10 minutes.
- Place the rabbit legs in another baking dish and cover with the hot onion mixture. Roast for 1 hour and 15 minutes, turning the legs every 10 minutes. When done, the meat should be tender and falling off the bone.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Pick the cooked meat off the bones, being careful to remove all of the bones. Coarsely chop the meat, combine with the onion mixture, and set aside.
- Raise the oven temperature to 450°F.
- Combine the cooked, chopped rabbit mixture with the raw ground rabbit, rosemary, pepper, garlic, white wine, parsley, eggs, and bread crumbs in a large mixing bowl and mix by hand until thoroughly incorporated.
- Roll the mixture into round, golf ball-size meatballs (about 1 1/2 inches), making sure to pack the meat firmly. Place the balls in the prepared baking dish, being careful to line them up snugly and in even rows vertically and horizontally to form a grid. The meatballs should be touching each other.
- Roast for 20 minutes, or until the meatballs are firm and cooked through. A meat thermometer inserted into the center of a meatball should read 165°F.
- Allow the meatballs to cool for 5 minutes in the baking dish before serving.
